Personally speaking, I think it’s addiction to the game. I played the game Enlisted for a few years and became a veteran player. It irritated me so much when I got inexperienced players on my team and I was carrying. I insulted my team mates in the chat a fair few times out of frustration. It just wasn’t enjoyable at all, yet I kept booting the game up every day.

Competitive online games really affect my mood, they make me so angry and I can’t help it. It’s unhealthy when a video game is actually ruining your day.

I just stick to singleplayer games now.
